I have a 1999 Corvette LS1 engine that I am putting in a 1969 Camaro. After much reading about transmissions I am a little fuzzy. I THINK any 4l60e auto no older than 1996 will work with no modifications. Am I correct?
Thanks,
Brian

You are correct that '96 or later will be electrically compatible.

In short, any '98 through '06 for a V8 will work; the later the better.
